Mrs Parry has just sent over to say that a prayer meeting would be held at their house tonight so I intend to go as we have a path shovelled over to their gate_

hoping they are all well

Affectionately Mother

Portage Jany. 21st 1886 Dear Anne I am very glad to know that your health was improved so much since you left Portage, you must feel quite encouraged and what a comfort it must be to spend the winter among fruits and flowers-

We are having quite a severe winter we have a great deal of snow, and the side walks are only [jt meaning just?] usable where the snow plough has gone through in some places the snow is up to the garden fences
